3:52:02LIKE HOLY HELL the word "generated" is tainted now
3:52:03UGGHHH YEAH and the AI bros are not helping in that regard
3:52:10:_ZannyCry::_ZannyCry: *muffled frustratedyelling*
3:52:10procedural generated areas have existed since forever...
3:52:13Jump in to day hi to my most handsome incubus honey bun :3
3:52:19... yeaaaah, those people *facepalms* :_NetherFear:
3:52:19too many uninformed idiots out there unfortunately... :_ZannyCry:
3:52:27procedural generation is actually so useful compared to GenAI
3:52:28If you just use AI to do procedural generation, it will be a huge mess :_ZannyLaugh:
3:52:31i cant even be that upset bc its coning from a good place but ugh :_ZannyCry:
3:52:39Math.random(); everyone's favorite programming variable
3:52:41So much works goes into procedural generation too it's been around such a long time.
3:52:44"generated" itself became such a bloated word now
3:53:05isn't that what minecraft does for the environment?
3:53:09thats how social media politics work unfortunately
3:53:09Its the toaster is ai argument all over again. Ive had that convo one too many times
3:53:12It’s easy to say that without nuance
3:53:32People like jumping on bandwagons without understanding what they're saying. As goes the internet :_ZannyLaugh:
3:53:50Hell, I have a collection of name "generators" that's really just randomly picking names from a list. You can do that with just a few lines of code!
3:53:55people should just stop...like in general
3:54:04@SleonHikari I somehow know exactly how that conversation goes despite never hearing it
3:54:11Speaking of Minecraft, it is a good example why procedural gen needs to be tweaked and maintained, especially for a big game
3:54:20it hurts my soul when people mix those up :_ZannyCry:
3:54:46Binding of Isaac is random too, random has been a thing since the early days.
3:54:51anyone with shiny art is struggling bro
3:55:00What do they think it was trained on :_ZannyCry:
3:55:03IT'S SO DIRE OUT HERE MAN :_ZannyCry:
3:55:18yeeeaaaa.. it turns into a witch hunt
3:55:18"your art looks generated" YEAH. GUESS WHO THE FCKING AI STOLE IT FROM.
3:55:19some people just want to argue for the sake of it :_ZannyCry::_ZannyCry:
3:55:30Also... the AI art looks like the artist, not the other way round... :_ZannyCry:
